Disc plate for P&H machinery

The disc plate 315F136 serves as a functional component within the braking or clutch assemblies of heavy equipment. Its primary role involves the transmission or interruption of mechanical power, or the dissipation of kinetic energy to regulate the speed and motion of the machine. In clutch configurations, the component acts to couple the engine to the transmission, while in braking systems, it works in conjunction with friction pads to decelerate or stop the equipment.

This component is designed for use in P&H machinery, including lattice boom cranes, electric shovels, and mining drills. It is engineered to meet the operational requirements of these systems, ensuring proper fitment within the specific drivetrain or braking architecture of P&H equipment.

Disc plates in heavy machinery systems are engineered to manage friction and heat during operation. They provide a surface for engagement that allows for the controlled transfer of torque or the conversion of motion into heat. Maintaining the integrity of these surfaces is necessary for the consistent operation of the clutch or brake system, as they are subject to axial loads and thermal cycling during regular use.
